I'm wondering how much extra weight the batteries add compared to a non-EV F150. I see in the eSourceBook for the Lightning that the "Base Curb Weight" for Lightning is 6171 lbs for SR and 6590 lbs for ER (420 lbs of extra battery weight in the ER). Does anybody know the base curb weight for a...
Lariat SR, Iced Blue Silver, Max Tow and Bedliner. Soon to be seen driving the backroads of Northern CA. Looking forward to seeing some action in this group as the time approaches!
There is a livestream (livestream.ford.com/f150-lightning) on April 26 @ 9PM EDT, but I don't think the hours countdown works out right for that. Maybe related though?
You don't mention the timestamp for your reservation, that is what's used by Ford to prioritize (absent a dealer prioritization list), not the reservation number.
The "2022 F-150 Lightning eSourceBook.pdf" (which somebody posted here a few months ago in another thread) shows the height as 78.3" (Code N in the diagram below). The footer for the document lists the date as Jan 26, along with the URL which is for dealers only so won't work for us customers...

Just got my Lariat SR scheduled today (or sometime in past few days, I hadn't checked until today) for week of 5/23, so I'm guessing they did release another build week just now.
I'm getting an SR Lariat, so won't be getting the 80A charge station. I'd like to use the included 30A charger as a backup, so will be getting another charger to install as a permanent charger in the garage. I've got 50A available to hook up to, so I'd like to make the most of it and get a...
The video you linked says that the 240 charger gets "about 20 miles per hour of charge", but the email I just got from Ford says "The 30-amp Ford Mobile Power Cord is included with all models. It’s portable so you can use it at home or take it with you when you travel. It’s estimated to add an...
Do we know if there is going to be a schedule going forward when they release new production dates? I'm guessing these won't trickle out but rather be a weekly event?
So it seems Ford scheduled the first set of builds from early April thru late May all at once -- does anybody know how often we can expect to see newly scheduled builds going forward, will this be a weekly update, or can we expect to wait a month and then see a whole bunch of scheduled orders again?
Good point, I was just considering the cost of the ER battery alone ($10k additional) vs the Lariat Plus package (which is $12k total and includes moonroof, phone as key, and hands free driving).
I disagree. We don't know the price of the SR battery, but the Lariat with no battery would have to be worth less than $37,500 for the ER battery to be a better value.
The math: for the extra $10k you pay for the ER, you get 33.7% more battery (131 kWh vs 98 kWh), which translates to a cost of...
